Intracranial epidermoid cysts are rare. We report a case of a 55-year-old man who presented with trigeminal neuralgia and was found, on imaging, to have an epidermoid cyst located in the right middle fossa. He was managed via an entirely endoscopic endonasal approach. Postoperative magnetic resonance imaging confirmed complete removal of the mass, and the patient continued to have complete reso...

We report a case of an epidermoid tumor of the right cerebellopontine angle (CPA) in which the contralateral CPA cistern showed abnormal, low signal intensity on T2-weighted fast spin-echo MR images. Diffusion-weighted images showed the epidermoid tumor of the right CPA extending to the prepontine cistern. The cause of the abnormal signal intensity was proved to be an artifactual signal loss du...

lung tumors of different histologies and apparent sites of origin. Hematite-210Po produces combined epidermoid and adenocarcinomas in the peripheral lung, while BP-hematite produces mainly epidermoid carcinomas of the major bronchi and trachea. To determine whether cells in the lung are differentially sensitive to the two types of carcinogen or whether the carcinogens are reaching and acting at...
